Clean sweep for Pepperdine golf teams


Congratulations to both of the Pepperdine golf teams!

Both the women's AND the men's golf teams won the WCC regional golf tournaments today up at La Purisima golf course in Lompoc!

The men's team beat Univ. San Diego by 5 strokes, and the #4 NATIONALLY ranked women's team DESTROYED the University of San Francisco by a whopping 21 strokes.

The women's team will next compete at the NCAA regionals on May 10, and the men's team returns to action a week later on May 17.

Go get 'em WAVES!!!

Agreed, Kristen!

We stopped at Purisima on our way home from our Pebble trip about four years ago now, and it was an impressive little course...

My most distinct memory was that it POURED rain on us, and I'm NOT a rainy-weather golfer...I remember the rain literally POURING off of the roof of the cart, and me sulking inside, being teased mercilessly by Cheri, Steve and Margaret...

It finally broke, and I finished the round, but I musta sat out over half the round!!!

FORTUNATELY, we were staying in Lompoc that night, and extended our trip by a day to go back the NEXT day...

I'd like to go back...there was a little Danish-style breakfast diner down the street from the hotel in Lompoc that had the BEST wheat pancakes, too....

Funny how certain elements of the trip stick with you...good times...
